1.20 The Navigation Data
Display
Navigation data can be displayed at the
screen bottom if the unit receives naviga-
tion input in NMEA 0183 format. Naviga-
tion data include
• position in latitude and longitude or Lo-
ran-C time differences (TDs)
• bearing and range to a waypoint selected
on the navigator
• cross track error (XTE—the amount in
nautical miles and the direction the ves-
sel if off course)
• depth
• speed.
If the navigation data include the destina-
tion data, waypoint position is denoted on
the screen by a dashed ring.

1.21 Echo Stretch (magnifying
long range echoes)
Normally, the reflected echoes from long
range targets appear on the display as weaker
and smaller blips even though they are com-
pensated by the internal circuitry. To stretch
long range echoes, in the range direction,
turn on the echo stretch function.
